Problema Solution
Write an equation of a line that has the same slope as 4x-10y=20 and the same y-intercept as 4y+24=5x
Answer provided by our tutors
First, we will find the slope of 4x-10y=20:
4x-10y=20
solving for y we get:
y = (2/5)x - 1
The slope is m = 2/5.
Next we will find the y-intercept of 4y+24=5x:
4y+24=5x
by solving for x = 0 we get:
4y + 24 = 0
y = -24/6
y = -4
this means that b = -4
The equations of the line is:
y = mx + b
y = (2/5)x - 4
